Fleet and Release Automation Engineer, Engineering Services
About The Position
Knightscope (NASDAQ: KSCP) is a security technology company building the nation's first Autonomous Security Force: autonomous machines, AI-driven software, and elite security professionals operating as one integrated managed service. The Company is on a mission to make the United States of America the safest country in the world. One Team. One Force. You will own the shared fleet and release automation function that Knightscope's device products (K5, K7, H1, K1H, ECD, and eventually Signals) all depend on. This is the earliest hire in the new centralized Engineering Services function because it is the highest-leverage: it unblocks the K7 beta prototype and the entire device rollout sequence.

- 7+ years in embedded fleet operations or release engineering.
- Hands-on OTA update system design and operation.
- Strong experience with device fleets at scale.
- Release automation patterns (canary, staged, ring-based).
- Infrastructure-as-code fluency.
Nice To Haves
- Robotics, security devices, or connected IoT products.
- Prior work standardizing release across multiple product lines.
- Regulated environment (safety-critical, security-critical) release experience.
Responsibilities
- Design, build, and operate the shared OTA and release pipeline across device products.
- Partner with Signals firmware engineers on unified OTA delivery.
- Establish release SLOs, rollback discipline, and an on-call rotation for fleet releases.
- Partner with DevOps and Platform to connect cloud pipelines to on-device delivery.
- Contribute to cross-product release standards through the Center of Engineering Excellence.
Benefits
- Medical, dental, vision, 401(k), paid time off
